When a motor drives a flexible structure, the structure's natural frequencies, as compared to the bandwidth of the servo drive, determine the contribution of the structural flexibility to the errors of the resulting motion. In current industrial robots, the drives are often relatively slow, and the structures are relatively rigid, so that overshoots and other errors are caused mainly by the servo drive. However, depending on the accuracy required, the structural deflections of the driven members can become significant. Structural flexibility must be considered the major source of motion errors in space structures and manipulators. Because of weight restrictions in space, large arm lengths result in flexible structures. Furthermore, future industrial robots should require lighter and more flexible manipulators.
To investigate the effects of structural flexibility and how different control schemes can reduce unwanted oscillations, an experimental apparatus was constructed consisting of a DC motor driving a slender aluminum beam. The purpose of the experiments was to identify simple and effective control strategies to deal with the motion errors that occur when a servomotor is driving a very flexible structure [13].
The experimental apparatus is shown in Figure P10.32(a), and the control system is shown in Figure P10.32(b).The goal is that the system will have a Kv of 100. (a) When Gc(s) = K, determine K and plot the Bode diagram. Find the phase margin and gain margin. (b) Using the Nichols chart, find ωr, Mpω and ωB. (c) Select a compensator so that the phase margin is greater than 35° and find and ωB for the compensated system.
Use a phase-lag compensator and attempt to achieve
: For the system of Problem P10.30, use a phase-lag compensator and attempt to achieve a phase margin of approximately 50°. Determine the actual overshoot and peak time for the compensated system.

How distant from the center of earth are such satellites
: Communications satellites are placed in "synchronous" orbits about Earth's equator, meaning thatthey orbit Earth in exactly 24 hours, and so stay above the same spot on Earth at all times. Roughly how distant from the center of Earth are such sate..
